What is your favorite flavor of ice cream? Are you a fan of Rocky Road, butter pecan, pistachio or cookies & cream? Or perhaps you prefer the more traditional flavors, such as vanilla, chocolate, or strawberry? Well today is a chocolate-lover’s favorite day: it’s Chocolate Ice Cream Day!
What will you serve with your ice cream today? Maybe some whipped cream, nuts & chocolate syrup! But first things first, you’ll need to grab your American-Made Cutlery ice cream scoop to fill up your bowl!
After months of being forced to stay at home during this quarantine, I bet you’re pretty sick of cooking everyday, right?
A simple go-to meal that anyone with zero cooking ability can make: a cheese platter.
It’s as simple as:
-finding a few of your favorite cheeses at the store (soft, hard, stinky, creamy- whatever you like!)
-crackers, focaccia, baguette, etc
-nuts, olives, dried fruits
-cured meats
Plus anything else you want to add! Make it your own, and don’t forget to get out your American-Made Cutlery cheese knife to serve it!
Happy Armed Forces Day to all of our active duty military across the country! Today has been a day of celebration and recognition for all members of the Army, Navy, Marine Corps, Coast Guard, & Air Force for the past 70 years.
What are the best ways to celebrate during this tumultuous time?
During the COVID-19 quarantine many people have turned to cooking and baking as new hobbies. So much so, that I’ve even heard that there is a shortage on flour!
If you’re one of the lucky ones who still has a bag of flour at home, try your hand at a good ol’ traditional apple pie. It doesn’t require any fancy tricks or too much skill. You can even just skip the homemade crust altogether and buy a frozen crust! All you need are some apples, sugar, and perhaps cinnamon and nutmeg. There are countless recipes online- go find one that sparks your interest on #ApplePieDay.
Once your pie is fresh out of the oven, slice it up with this American-made Cutlery pie server and share it with your quarantine team! Yum!
Even though many of the major holidays have passed, we can still find any day to celebrate with a prime rib dinner. Today is National Prime Rib Day, the best reason to make a yummy flavorful dinner tonight. What exactly is prime rib?
Now that you know the basics of prime rib, you will also need the proper American-made Cutlery knives in which to cut and serve this yummy cut of beef:
When you think of slicing up a pizza for your family for dinner, you usually reach for the pizza cutter right? Well today calls for an extra tool- it’s Deep Dish Pizza Day, so you will need a mini pizza server as well!
Bet you didn’t know this about #DeepDishPizza:
Enjoy!
Have you, like many others, tried your hand at baking during these WFH days? Maybe you’ve played it safe and just grabbed a boxed cake or muffin mix from the pantry. But are you thinking perhaps to step it up a notch? Today’s the day- it’s Sourdough Bread Day!
Breadmaking can be a daunting task for many- but lately yeast has become hard to come by (along with toilet paper and bottled water!). The next best thing you can do if you can’t find yeast at the store is to make your own sourdough starter from scratch.
Wild yeast naturally lives in flour, so it is actually quite easy to get it to grow into a sourdough starter.
Here’s what you’ll need to do:
DAY 1: Combine flour & room temperature water in a glass jar on the counter, cover with towel
DAY 2: Feed the starter with equal parts flour and water, mix
DAY 3: The starter will become bubbly and active. Feed again, mix
DAY 4: Feed with flour & water again, mix
DAY 5: Starter should be frothy and billowy & smell sour- it’s ready to use!
Now you have your own homemade yeast to make your own yummy loaf of sourdough! Once you’re ready for the official taste-test, make sure to grab your American-made Cutlery bread knife to make it super easy to slice up the yumminess!
Serve it with a bowl of soup on a rainy day, or make towering sandwich, you can’t go wrong!
As we all sit down this week for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, let’s give a special thanks and shout-out to our nation’s farmers. This week is National Ag Week, a time where the Agriculture Council of America encourages giving the farming community well-deserved recognition for their hard work.
How can you and your company help recognize America’s agriculture community this week?
#FoodForLife
America’s farmers are some of the unsung heroes of our country- providing us with such a bountiful variety of fruits, vegetables, meats, & grains. We’re quite lucky how self-sustainable our country is. This week is the time to celebrate and support our current and future generations of farmers- it is Future Farmers of America Week!
What do our farmers rely on the most during their day-to-day tasks? They want to grab their best pocket knife out of their back pocket. These are by far the best ones out there to celebrate #FFAWeek:
SODBUSTER STYLE: EDC (everyday carry) knives that any farmer can carry in their back pocket and grab whenever needed
STOCKMAN STYLE: You don’t need to carry multiple knives, as this style has 3 blades in one. Multiple uses for farmers & ranchers who have livestock
